My pathetic contribution was the first Korg drum machine which nobody used and was eventually bought by Jez from Utah Saints. I don&#8217;t suppose he used it<span class=\"bcTruncateMore\"> either. It sounded awful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Music at this time was largely devoted to guitar-oriented production, but the unwitting advantage these people had was our mistrust of the fretboard. Then Electro happened, we got an 808, and Son of Sam was born when I needed a nasty name to scribble on a cassette. As time went on, Razors and Mr Cheese fleshed my meanderings out into a &#8220;real band&#8221;, we played a few dates around Europe, brought out some vinyl on Rouska and then logically destroyed ourselves when Techno arrived.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Domestica Records<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Domestica Records<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>All at <strong>Domestica<\/strong> have been dancing for some time now to this our second (and last for the time being) release by mid-80s West Yorkshire industrial disco act <strong>Son Of Sam<\/strong>, an album consisting of all the instrumental tracks on the very rare cassette released by Final Image in 1985, &#8220;<strong>The Collapse Of Ancient Funk<\/strong>&#8221; (1984-85 A.D.).
